Bette saw Kit standing by the counter and led Tina over there.

“Hey Baby girl” Kit smiled.

“Hey Kit” Bette smiled back “This is Tina Kennard and Tina this is my sister Kit Porter” Bette introduced the two ladies.

“This is Tina?” Kit exclaimed “The Tina you’ve been going on about for weeks?” she asked making Tina raise her eyebrows at Bette.

“This is her” Bette smiled putting her arm around Tina’s waist.

“It’s so nice to meet you” Tina smiled extending her hand to the woman.

“You too Baby girl…you know my baby sis won’t stop talking about you” she smiled.

“So Kit is the gang here?” Bette asked.

“Yeah they are sitting in the back” Kit smiled.

“Ok we’re going to go over there” Bette said before turning to Tina “Do you want anything?”

“Um yeah I’ll have some coffee and a croissant” Tina smiled.

“Make that two” Bette smiled to Kit.

“Ok I’ll bring it over to the table” Kit smiled.

Bette led Tina towards the back spotting Alice, Dana and Shane at a table.

“Hey guys” Bette smiled.

“Bette!” Alice said excitedly “We haven’t seen you in days”

“I know…I’m sorry I’ve been busy”

“I can see that” Alice smiled eyeing Tina.

“So guys this is Tina Kennard and Tina this is Alice, Shane and Dana” Bette said pointing out the girls at the table.

“It’s really nice to meet you guys…Bette’s been going on about how great you are” Tina smiled.

“Really Porter?” Alice said “You think we’re great?”

Bette rolled her eyes pulling out a chair for Tina and one for herself sitting down.

“Tina it’s nice to meet you too” Shane smiled as Dana agreed also smiling at her.

“So Tina you’re an escort right?” Alice said eyeing her curiously.

“Um yes” Tina answered.

“So how much do you make a night?”

“Alice!” Bette exclaimed looking angrily at her friend.

“What? I’m just curious” Alice defended herself.

“Well I make a thousand dollars a night and then usually I get tip too” Tina answered.

“A thousand dollars!?” Alice squealed “And you don’t sleep with them?”

“No” Tina said scrunching her eyebrows.

“Wow maybe I should be an escort” Alice said.

“Do you really make a thousand dollars a date?” Dana asked stunned.

“Yes I mean most of the men I go on dates with are rich business men who have an event to go to and need a pretty lady by their side” Tina said.

“Has anyone ever tried to get you to sleep with them?”

“Um yeah…” Tina said looking down “But I always carry pepper spray in my purse”

Bette could see that Tina was getting uncomfortable with the conversation “Ok Alice that’s enough” she said giving her friend a stern look.

Kit walked over with their croissants and coffees.

“Here you go Baby girl” she smiled handing Bette her coffee before walking back to the counter.

“So what are you guys doing tonight?” Shane asked looking at Bette and Tina.

“Well we haven’t really decided anything” Bette said looking at Tina.

“You have to come to HIT with us!” Alice exclaimed.

“Um I don’t know…” Bette started.

“I would love to” Tina smiled.

“You would?” Bette looked at her smiling.

“Yeah”

“Alright TK!” Alice said holding her hand up to high five the blonde.

“TK?” Bette asked raising an eyebrow at her friend.

“Well Tina Kennard – TK” Alice smiled.

Tina laughed high-fiving Alice “I like it”
